Chapter 1004: Blizzard's Fear
Blade Lyvia. Significant in the United States
It is home to one-seventh of the population of the United States. With an economy of trillions of dollars and the largest economic power in the United States, she could claim to be the fifth largest economy in the world, after the United States, the European Union, Japan and China, assuming that she is an independent country. At the same time, California is home to many high-tech companies, and Silicon Valley, Shijie's most famous high-tech industrial district, is located in California.
Alvin is a small city in Orange County, California. Sparsely populated, without the hustle and bustle of cars in other big cities in the United States, and without the dazzling neon lights, there are forests, some blue skies and white clouds, and some green grass and streams, it can be said that it is an idyllic green city, a quite livable city. But it's a small city that's very livable, but it's home to a company that can shake the gaming world, Blizzard Entertainment
The target of Lin Feng's trip is a Blizzard Entertainment Company.
In order to keep a low profile this time, Lin Feng's special plane "Wind Wings" was temporarily parked at Houston International Airport for 8 Ming lucky players to use when visiting the United States. As for Lin Feng himself, he flew to the city of Alvin on an American Airlines flight.
Lin Feng flew under the net, and Mike Mohuaimi, the president of Blizzard Entertainment, greeted him.
"Mr. Lin, welcome, welcome". Mike smiled at Mo Huaimi.
"Mike, long time no see, congratulations. Congratulations." Lin Feng congratulated. Lin Feng congratulated that in August, Blizzard Entertainment announced the launch of a large-scale online online game "Warcraft Shijie", and it is expected to be launched in public beta in the first month, and the selected listing country is South Korea. After all, South Korea is the most popular country for Blizzard Entertainment's StarCraft, and Blizzard Entertainment believes that this Warcraft Shijie will be sought after by Korean players in South Korea.
When it came to the selection of countries, Blizzard Entertainment thought about it for a long time. Originally prepared to be in the United States. However, the online game industry in the United States is not up to the top, and the United States, which has too many sports and various entertainment industries, does not attach much importance to game entertainment, especially online games, and the American people have too many entertainment methods.
Then Blizzard Entertainment thought of Europe, but Europe is now being invaded by Lin Feng's "second shijie", and once it advances into Europe, it is afraid that it will have to confront Lin Feng's "second shijie" head-on. When it comes to single-player games, Blizzard doesn't scare any company. But when it comes to online games, although Blizzard is very confident in "Warcraft Shijie", the online market is rashly fighting with the overlord of the online game industry. This is not a wise choice. It is very likely that players will be attracted by Lin Feng's series of promotions before they have even experienced the fun of the game. At that time, it was obviously a good game, but it was ruined like this.
So, in the end, Blizzard had to set its sights on Asia. Although Asia is the territory of the forest wind, there are several countries in Asia that the shili of the forest wind cannot penetrate. Japan, with the relationship between China and Japan, and Lin Feng's previous high-profile sniping of the Japanese financial market. It can be said that Lin Feng's company is quite unpopular in Japan. Only that plays. Arguably. Japan is a nice shiyan spot. However, the online game market in Japan is much poorer than in the United States. "By no means a good place.
Aside from Japan, the only place left is South Korea. Blizzard's games are extremely popular in South Korea. When it was first selected, the first public beta country proposed by Blizzard's top management was South Korea, but because Lin Feng's woman has a very high popularity in South Korea, for the Korean people, the woman of their own country can actually capture Shijie rich, which is quite a face-saving thing. In particular, Lee Ji-woo and Hwang Mi-hee have grown up from an ordinary batch that can no longer be ordinary, which is the "Korean dream" of all Korean women. "One
In this case. Blizzard is worried that when the time comes for the open beta, if Lin Feng takes some sanctions in order to hit his opponent, Blizzard will not be able to predict the reaction of the South Korean people. But for now. The only suitable test country is South Korea, and Korean players love Blizzard games in a way that other countries don't have.
Of course, Blizzard can also expect that Lin Feng will not launch sanctions against Blizzard's "Warcraft Shijie". After all, there are many shijie game companies, not only the "second shijie" game company, Lin Feng can't be so domineering. But Blizzard President Mike Mo Huaimi once talked to Lin Feng (about jointly opening a new game engine), and Lin Feng's words revealed his deep admiration for Blizzard, but Mike Mo Huaimi heard Lin Feng's fear of Blizzard.
And judging from Lin Feng's past methods, Lin Feng has never shown mercy to those enemies that may exist. Especially in the online game industry, Lin Feng's means and momentum are very similar to that of online games.
In this case, Blizzard, who was jealous of Shan Mufeng, launched "Warcraft Shijie", and Lin Feng would not act. Chi Huaimi never believed it. But no matter how strong Lin Feng is. No matter how lofty its status is in the online game industry, Blizzard also needs to be exhibited and grown. Online games are also a popular game industry in the future. "Warcraft Shijie" is a must.
In August, it was announced that "Warcraft Shijie" would be opened. After the old moon announced that it would be open beta in South Korea at the end of the year, Mike Yi Mo Huaimi has been worried in his heart. Outcome. In the middle of the month, I received a call from Lin Feng to visit Blizzard's headquarters.
When Mike Mowmi received the call. There was a thump in my heart. All the time. All the time. He was worried about what kind of attitude Lin Feng would take towards the open beta of "Warcraft Shijie".
Especially. After witnessing Lin Feng's hurtful sanctions against China's "anti-base" coalition in the month, Mike Mohuaimi's heart was cold. Lin Feng's methods are too vicious, completely hurting people, it can be said that unless you have extremely strong capital, the sanctioned company has no power to resist at all.
Now, Lin Feng said that he was coming to visit Blizzard. This is not good news for Blizzard. Although Lin Feng kept saying that he was coming to visit, Lin Feng, the emperor of the online game industry and the Taishan Beidou of the game industry, came to visit, would it be so simple to visit?
Aside from Lin Feng's series of revenge methods due to rejection, just from the cooperation between the two companies to open a new persuasion game engine ("Warcraft Shijie" engine), Blizzard could not refuse Lin Feng's request to visit. Otherwise. Lin Feng only needed to hand over a piece of paper to the court, saying that this brand new Mi engine belonged to the "second shijie." Exclusively owned. Then it's enough for Blizzard to vomit blood. Although the two sides signed a complete agreement at the beginning, Blizzard was sure to win. But Lin Feng can completely delay the launch time of "Warcraft Shijie" with a piece of paper, which is undoubtedly digging Blizzard's grave. And judging from Lin Feng's character, if you really refuse Lin Feng to visit Blizzard, plus the open beta of "Warcraft Shijie", Lin Feng is really likely to do this.
Eventually, after a short discussion at Blizzard's top management. It was decided to welcome Lin Feng to visit. As for the receptionists, except for President Mike a Mo Wymi. No one else is suitable.
"Mr. Lin. We're ready for everything, please!" Mike beckoned as a Chevrolet drove over.
"Please". Lin Fengqian said.
"Please!" Mike Mo Huaimi took Lin Feng's hand and got into the car together.
Speeding all the way, Lin Feng and Mike Yi Mo Huaimi chatted about some non-existent topics in the car. However, each of them is testing each other's true intentions.
"Mr. Lin, here we are, this is our Blizzard headquarters. Mr. Lin, you must know that you are one of the few people who can come and visit Blizzard's headquarters!" Mike Mowami looked confidently at the huge words "Planing Power Old" at the gate of Blizzard's corporate headquarters!
Lin Feng followed Mike and Mo Huaimi into the door of Blizzard, and along the way, the advertising signs of "Warcraft Shijie" could be seen everywhere in Blizzard's park, and Lin Feng nodded secretly. I know that this "Warcraft Shijie" should be almost finished.
Although it has only been more than a month since the announcement of the opening of "Warcraft Shijie". But to know that it is improved, it can be said that there is no difficulty in jishu, and there are even similarities, but it needs to be networked. With the addition of Blizzard's jishuliliang, more than enough time to open for more than a month.
Walking further inside, Lin Feng saw all kinds of statues, all of which were statues of Blizzard's games. All of them are extremely realistic, making you feel like you're in the middle of a game. This also reminded Lin Feng that maybe his company should do the same, and make more statues of its games. Although, for now. "The Light of the Century. It is no longer possible to expand this kind of relatively large statue, but the square in front of the "Century Light" is empty, and if you add statues of various characters in its games, you can not only improve the company's image. Increase popularity, and at the same time, it can also become a beautiful scenery. This is also a business source for the entertainment and leisure plaza on the ninth floor below the "Light of the Century".
Of course, the most important thing is to motivate the morale of the "second shijie" employees. After all, passing by the game statue of my company every day, the pride in my heart cannot be replaced. Compared with this, when Mike and Mo Huaimi passed by these statues, his face was full of sincerity, that confidence, that pride, it was majestic!
Subsequently, Lin Feng went to Mike Mo Huaimi's office. Formal negotiations are finally about to begin.
